    You would have to go back, way back, when fighters fought on a monthly basis to find someone who was never blamed of ducking and even then there is someone out there that should have would have fought

    The past : Rocky Marciano, Marvin Hagler, and Julio C. Chavez sr.

    The present: Genady Golovkin (he said that he'll fight anyone from 154-168).

    I disagree I seem to remember Oscar bragging that he wanted the winner of Cotto-Margarito as his final swan song. BUT when he saw how Tony made Cotto take a knee and QUIT!!!
    after having the living crap beat out of him, Oscar hastily changed his mind. Instead he took on little Manny Paquaio who he mistakenly thought wasnt big enough to bother him. It made my day when Manny totally embarassed Oscar & beat him into retirement.
    Funny how they got rid of Tony Margarito without having to fight him huh:patsch

    Duran refused to fight a rematch against Ken Buchanon. Duran & ref Johnny LoBianco conspired to beat Ken as it was The bell ended to end the round Duran threw a blatantly late & low blow to Ken's groin. LoBianco ruled the punch was BEFORE the bell & LEGITIMATE!!!!
    Tapes prove he was blatantly wrong & the fact Ken was hospitalised with serious injuries to his genitals. That was one of the most blatantly corrupt ref decisions I have ever seen :patsch

    Currently Chisora without doubt. He has consistently fought top opposition.
    Haye, Vitali, Fury, Helenius (rated at that time), Scott (pre-dive and undefeated), Johnson (paint dry veteran) and arguably Williams (the Tyson killer). Not to mention spitting in Wlad's face and calling every other half decent boxer out; Povetkin, Wilder, Pulev despite the fights falling through. I think he deserves this warrior title.

    BULL****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please I beg you put up one iota of proof that Tony Margarito EVER loaded or tried to load his gloves. That lying POC Nazim Richardson that started all the crap couldnt, neither could the CSAC. In fact when asked for the pads so they could be inspected the CSAC embarassingly stuttered " We dont have them any more they have been mislaid"
    If there was the slightest evidence impropriety had occured Margarito would have been indicted.
    What that man recieved was CRIMINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:fire:fire:fire

    He didn't fight Jose Luis Lopez, Forrest, Winky, Margarito, Kostya Tyzsu, and some that I have forgotten.

    But he did fight old, past their prime champs to fool the casual fan, so don't feel too bad.

    Duran did sign to fight Pryor, it was Aaron who blew his opportunity, he was offered $750K to fight Duran, but took his attorney's advice & delayed the fight....chance gone.
